Baby Shower Gifts

I finally finished a gift that I was working on for some friends of ours that are having a baby very soon. I was excited to make a few things and also buy a bunch of stuff. These friends took great care of us when our son was on the way and I had a lot of fun trying to repay the favor. My husband brought the gifts to work today to give to the daddy-to-be, so I can finally share what was included!

I started by making a tote bag personalized with their daughters initials.

I made a lovely blanky too. It's minky fleece dot, backed with flannel. (coming soon to the shop)

Then I got to fill the rest of that bag up with some of my favorite baby products.

A fleece jacket suit with adorable little ears, like the one Evan used to wear (only his was blue)

A version of Evan's favorite book. Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?
I couldn't actually find the exact one he likes best anywhere, so I picked up the advanced version. Evan has this one too because some of our friends got it for him for his birthday!
